Sad part is that it wouldn't be so bad to post.....if they kept it all in the same thread. For example, have a thread for People lining up and they can all relate in there. Or, how long did you stand in line all in one thread. While it can be perceived as a pain to find a reply (um, that's what quoting is for), it's more efficient being in the same one post that you can even subscribe to vs. hanging out all day getting paid at a job while cruising a forum. You know, like I'm doing now.
Because it is getting ridiculously hard to find the posts where someone truely needs help. I am sure tons of questions are getting missed.

Actually; it's not those kinds of threads that irk me...it's the ones that ask for the PINs of extremely specific age groups. For example: "Where are all the 22 to 24 year old BB'ers at?", "47 to 53 years-old? Well post your PIN!!!".
Annoying.

The problem with this is that these posters would be upset if their thread was closed/deleted. I agree with you though. A large majority of the threads currently in the forum are completely useless and undermine the purpose of the thread.
Sorry people but I have to disagree with the basic gripe of this
thread. Yes this is a BlackBerry Forum, but guess what, not every
BB user thinks of nothing but their phone every freakin' waking
moment of their lives.
What exactly is so bad about chatting with other users in your
state, city or town. Or in your age bracket. Or in your
profession. Or ....
Lighten up a bit. Find the info you need, help when you can and
if you want to sit in a Off-Topic or Social thread and just shoot
the s%^t fine. If not also fine, but why begrudge people who
actually enjoy a few moments of BB diversion.

IMHO, I'm reading the posts on this thread and you can see part of the problem is that a very big, but insular community is seeing a lot of new people come and joining in. While its great to see others with the addiction sharing their love, there is an obvious feeling among others that feel that they're not showing a certain respect to the format.
All I can say to both sides of the issue is that eventually, with a little patience, in the long run we're going to have a bigger, stronger community. Or we're in for one long flame war. Lol
